Whistleblower Insider wants to hear from you on who should be honored as our 2015 Whistleblower of the Year.

You can choose among the 6 candidates listed below, or select your own candidate. Please vote for and identify as many candidates as you like. The more the merrier. Voting will continue through the end of January with results of your top selections to be announced shortly thereafter. Thanks for voting!

Aicha Elbasri — The former spokesperson for the United Nations Mission in Darfur (UNAMID) who resigned from that post after calling out what she describes as the “conspiracy of silence” of UNAMID and the UN in failing to report on the atrocities committed by the Sudanese government against its people. Learn more about Ms. Elbasri.

Yuliya and Vitaly Stepanov — The Russian sports insiders who took a bold stand against what they saw as major corruption in the recently revitalized Russian sports machine and exposed one of the biggest international doping scandals in sports history. Learn more about the Stepanovs.

Craig is helping provide resident who are impacted by Factory Farms with help. He has provided farmers the right to speak out against the abuse of a company who can cancel your contract at anytime. Hes help show the abuse animals suffer from these CAFO’s. Im very proud of someone who stands up to one of the biggest lobby groups out there.

Dr. William Thompson is no less important, perhaps even more so, because his disclosure is entirely blacked out by major media. Nobody is allowed to disclose information that the CDC falsified research and still asserts there’s ‘no evidence’ of any link between vaccines and autism. The bureaucrats ordered the scientist to make the evidence disappear. Look up his name and Dr. Brian Hooker (together) for background. E.g.

These are all worthy candidates for a win of 2015 Whistleblower of the Year, but with me being associated with poultry production for thirty years, and watching the injustice done to contract poultry growers and their families, there is no doubt my vote must go to Craig Watts. Mr. Watts stepped out of the crowd for those afraid to express their thoughts and feelings concerning their treatment by the all-to-powerful meat production companies. He was a bearer of the cross for those intimidated by big money companies. Kudos to Mr. Watts for stepping out in front for all those afraid to step out themselves. He laid his way of life on the line for contract poultry produces across our country…all I can say is, God Bless Craig Watts, and the USA!

He’s started a movement that has been long over due and kept way to quiet. He’s helping all of us around the country, from the farm workers to plant workers to neighborhoods that are forced to live by big poultry. He is helping the helpless.
